cookies can be managed through browser settings. Adobe also provides a means of

DO NOT TRACK REQUESTS
Some Web browsers incorporate a “Do Not
Track” feature that signals to websites that you visit that you do not want to
have your online activity tracked. Each browser communicates “Do Not Track”
signals to websites differently, making it unworkable to honor each and every
request correctly. In order to alleviate any communication error between
browsers and website, we do not respond to “Do Not Track” signals at this time.
As the technology and communication between browser and website improves, we
will reevaluate the ability to honor “Do Not Track” signals and may make
changes to our policy.

We will implement reasonable and
appropriate security procedures consistent with prevailing industry standards
to protect data from unauthorized access by physical and electronic intrusion.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or method of data storage

Personal Data by following generally accepted industry standards, we cannot
ensure or warrant the absolute security of any information you transmit to us
or archive at this site.
UPDATING PERSONAL DATA
Upon request, we will permit you to
request or make changes or updates to your Personal Data for legitimate
purposes. We request identification prior to approving such requests. We
reserve the right to decline any requests that are unreasonably repetitive or
systematic, require unreasonable time or effort of our technical or
administrative personnel, or undermine the privacy rights of others. We reserve
the right to permit you to access your Personal Data in any account you
establish with this site for purposes of making your own changes or updates,
and in such case, instructions for making such changes or updates will be
provided where necessary.
